[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1149126, member: 24098"] I suspect that's your problem right there. Are you sure it's completely gone? Symantec goes pretty deep and it's known to be horribly difficult to remove. Quite honestly, the cure is worse than the (non-existent) disease in the case of Symantec. Also, I would disable Spotlight indexing on the external. Open System Preferences => Spotlight. Click the Privacy tab and then drag the external's icon into the list. See if that makes a difference.
